As there is high volume of acute presentations (including STEMI, post trauma cardiac tamponade) to our hospital, fellows do in-house calls. During the call, the fellow would be responsible for guiding CCU residents in managing the unit and in urgent consults, he will be able to respond promptly to calls for stat Echo and activating cath lab.
More than half of calls are considered by the department to be moonlighting and these paid calls are distributed equally between fellows.
